BridgeDB is/was using a GeoIP module which is incompatible with virtualenvs
04:07 [ (isis) ) sysrqb: i realised yesterday that we're actually using the wrong GeoIP module in bridgedb's requirements.txt
04:08 [ (isis) ) although the one we're using, pygeoip.GeoIP, is compatible (at least it has all the same functions we're using from the the GeoIP one)
04:09 [ (isis) ) i am thinking that perhaps we should keep using the "wrong" one, since it is compatible
04:10 [ (isis) ) because the "wrong" one (the pygeoip one) installs cleanly in a virtualenv, while the other one does not
04:10 [ (isis) ) i think they both require the same underlying deps, libgeoip-dev and geoip-database in Debian
04:11 [ (isis) ) which means that my README instructions which said that bridgedb requires tor-geoipdb were also wrong
